Spall was in San Francisco recently to talk about the film. Here is a highlight of the interview. We have a longer interview coming up with him about how he prepared for his role in “Mr. Turner,” and working with Leigh. While preparing to record the interview we got talking to Spall about San Francisco, India and Indian food. This was his second trip to San Francisco. He mentioned that he’d love to visit India someday. And naturally,we had to ask him if had a favorite Indian food since Indian cuisine is so popular in Britain.
